Where do the salmon go? POST: Pacific Ocean Salmon Tracking

As the marine movements of individual salmon are poorly understood, a new research endeavor called POST, the Pacific Ocean Salmon Tracking project, offers the opportunity to make major breakthroughs in our understanding of how salmon use the ocean. Salmon face many challenges once they leave their rivers. They not only have to avoid predators and locate adequate sources of food, but they must also adapt to natural changes in the ocean and climate. Questions of where the salmon go, how they use the structure of the ocean environment to accomplish their migrations and what they experience when they reach their marine feeding grounds will be answered through the use of groundbreaking tagging technology.2004-08-07, door Inne ten Have

Pacman breaks out of the arcade

A group of Singapore-based researchers are taking Pacman out of the arcade hall of fame and setting him loose on the streets.

The virtual reality gaming system allows players to become the insatiable cookie-munching hero of the classic computer game or one of his ghostly nemeses, simply by donning a backpack and a pair of goggles.

But instead of becoming a yellow blob trapped in a low-resolution two-dimensional maze, "Human Pacman" can roam freely through real environments.

The system was designed by a team led by Dr. Adrian Cheok of the Mixed Reality Lab at the National University of Singapore, using ubiquitous computing technology2004-11-22, door Inne ten Have

For the last 12 years, a single solitary whale whose vocalizations match no known living species has been tracked across the Northeast Pacific. Its wanderings match no known migratory patterns of any living whale species. Its vocalizations have also subtly deepened over the years, indicating that the whale is maturing and ageing. And, during the entire 12 year span that it has been tracked, it has been calling out for contact from others of its own kind.

It has received no answer. Nor will it ever.2004-12-21, door Inne ten Have
